(Truffled) Deviled Eggs with Bacon and Green Onions
Growing up, deviled eggs always made an appearance at holiday dinners. My mom garnishes them with halved green olives and while those will always be the best way to make them, I think it’s fun to mix things up every now and then.
Tomorrow for easter dinner, Joe and I are driving one sweetly short hour south to spend it with my sister and her husband. My job is to bring dessert and deviled eggs. With four options (regular with bacon, regular with green onions, truffle with bacon, and truffle with green onions) I’m hoping everyone can find room for a new favorite.
Deviled Eggs and Truffled Deviled Eggs
